    Oden is opening up so many wide-open jump shots...finally we start hitting them after McMillan took out Outlaw

    Wow. The Knicks have 68 points at halftime. D'Antoni is working his magic.

    I'm not that big of a Sergio fan but I have to admit he has played well the last 2-3 games. I'm starting to believe in him and maybe he is going to be our PG. I still think it will be Bayless before it is all over and done with though.

    Blake > Sergio defensively is a myth, IMO. Maybe once true, but now falsely perpetuated...

    Nah. Outlaw has done that too. I remember a couple plays this season where he's turned down the open three and gotten inside and then dished it off. There was one play where he dished to Roy then Roy dished to LMA for the dunk. That game that Outlaw played 41 minutes, he only took 12 shots. Outlaw passed far more than he shot.

    They sure didn't play Oden long. I think he was playing well and giving us some good D. I hate to see Oden out and Frye still in lol.:sigh:

    No kidding. Oden needs to start working with the starting unit again. He opens up so many shots for them.

    Oden only played 7 minutes even less then last game. I think Nate isn't going to play him more then 15 minutes a game for a lot of the next few games. I think to get Oden in shape they need to start playing him at least 20+ minutes a game. He was playing ok and still didn't get to stay in.:dunno:

    remember the play where Outlaw drove, ignored a wide open Rudy, and took a bad shot?
    That's what I'm talking about. Outlaw is still a decent player, but Rudy is special.

    Outlaw stays in fire from the three point line. 15-25 on the season.

    Well we haven't played great and still have the lead. That is a good sign and hopefully we will have a good 2nd half and a 5 game winning streak.:cheers:

    Travis is horrible at making on the spot decisions. He's most effective when our guards create his scoring opportunities.

    Sergio needs to play more. He makes his teammates better, you can't say that about Blake.

    Run more plays for RUDY!

    I can't wait for Greg to play in front of the home crowd next week. I think it will definitely help his confidence hearing the crowd cheer his blocks and dunks.
